Loose stools
Trying to figure out what is causing it. Someone on the RNY page suggested higher fat in my diet. Sounds possible, but I'm not sure my fat content went way up. Having said that I am cutting way back on fats for a couple of days to see if that's the cause.
I thought maybe it was the added carbs. I don't take in a whole lot but they have crept in a bit since Scotland.
Anyone else had this happen and did you find out what the cause was?
Did you have your gall bladder out? DH has terrible diarrhea since he did. Having mine out in March didn't help me at all with my constipation problem.

I'm not sick and don't have a fever or anything. I see the doc's office on the 28th, but I'll see if I can narrow down what it is by then.

Primal Defense Ultra is a horse pill sized capsule and has billions of good bacteria. Sounds like you need the Flagyl to me. Kill the over growth with Flagyl and then start a good probiotic to repopulate your gut with good bacteria. Activia may work too slow and not be strong enough to counter over growth and repopulate.
What ever this is, doesn't sound normal for a DSr or RNYr. Talk to your surgeon's office and get some help.

It made me wonder if the introduction of carbs in Scotland triggered it. It kind of started around that time. Something to do with carbs transiting the gut too fast or something was what they said.
Anyhoo, I think you are spot on and I will ask about the Flagyl and probiotics.
